Oh, yes -- nit picking can be done -- always room for improvement -- especially adjusting to a new space -- But I, and several others that I spoke to, -- felt that the '09 Festival ranked among the best -- For me personally -- every workshop, concert and encounter -- was like a magic tonic for me -- an inspiration to move on to the new work that needs doing -- I met a number of people that were there for their first time -- One couple from PA and another from NY -- They were so enthusiastic about what they saw -- They intended to join and tell friends -- All those involved in this year's event may take pride in this success -- I personally wish to express my gratitude as audience -- As well as someone with a vision -- that you have carried forward in such fine fashion -- You have truly honored me -- In truth -- it is now your fine work -- and you that should be honored -- thank you all -- Howard
